Camping was wonderful. The children had such a good time. On Saturday, we went into Astoria, Oregon and acted like tourists. We found the house that the kids lived in, in the movie "Goonies", and we climbed the Astoria Column. The view from the top of the column was amazing. I took many photos, from wooded areas, oceans, mountain views, ships, fireworks... tons of photos. I will be sharing some with you soon!

The Goonie house was a bit anti-climactic. The house is currently occupied, and they welcome you to look at it, but ask that you not disturb the residents.

I did a bit of thinking while on this trip. This will be a year of change, in so many ways. I will share the changes as I become comfortable with all that's going on.

The photo above, I took specifically for my dad. We shot off our fireworks in Long Beach, Washington. That was the sunset over the ocean.
